Ravioli with Spinach,Tomatoes and Bacon bits

I love pasta. I think they are good with or without sauce. The recipe is originally created by Giada de Laurentiis on Food Network. I substitute some of the ingredients and add some more spices. This is simple to make and has great flavor. Perfect weeknight meal for family. 






Ravioli with Spinach,Tomatoes and Bacon bits
Serves: 4
1 pound beef ravioli 
1 cup bacon bits
1 medium size Roma tomato, diced
1/2 cup frozen spinach
1/2 medium size yellow onion,chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper


Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the ravioli and cook according  to the package direction or until tender. Drain.
In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stir in olive oil and the butter and melt. 
Add chopped onion,stir occasionally until tender. Add chopped garlic,diced tomato,cook for 3 minutes. Add basil,oregano,spinach,stir until well blended for 1 minutes. Add ravioli and bacon bits and toss until coated. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve.
